System Requirements Document (SRD)

1. Introduction

This document outlines the requirements for an AI-powered minimalist to-do application. The application is designed to help users manage tasks efficiently by leveraging AI to sort tasks based on their content. The app will feature a simple, vivid, and minimalist design, ensuring ease of use and aesthetic appeal.

2. System Overview

The AI-powered to-do app will allow users to create, view, and manage tasks. Each task will consist of a title and a checkbox for marking completion. The app will include a one-line input section for adding new tasks. Upon adding a task, the AI will automatically sort tasks based on their content using zero-shot knowledge. The design will be minimalist yet vivid, focusing on simplicity and functionality.

3. Functional Requirements as Story Points

• As a User, I should be able to add a new task using a one-line input section.
• As a User, I should be able to view tasks in a list format, with one task per line.
• As a User, I should be able to mark tasks as complete using a checkbox.
• As a User, I should be able to see tasks automatically sorted by AI based on task content.
• As a User, I should experience a simple and minimalist interface with vivid colors.

4. User Personas

User

• Description: The primary user of the application. They are individuals looking for a simple and efficient way to manage their tasks.
• Goals: To create, view, and manage tasks with minimal effort while benefiting from AI-powered sorting.
• Pain Points: Overwhelming task lists, difficulty in organizing tasks manually, and cluttered interfaces.

5. Visuals Colors and Theme

The app will feature a minimalist design with vivid yet simple colors. The proposed color scheme includes:

• Background: White or light gray for a clean and uncluttered look.
• Primary Color: Vivid blue for actionable elements like buttons and checkboxes.
• Secondary Color: Soft green for task highlights or completed tasks.
• Accent Color: Bright orange for the task input section to draw attention.
• Font: Sans-serif fonts like Roboto or Open Sans for readability.

6. Non-Functional Requirements

• The app should load tasks and sort them within 1 second of adding a new task.
• The AI sorting mechanism should operate seamlessly without noticeable delays.
• The app should be responsive and work on both desktop and mobile devices.
• The design should adhere to accessibility standards, ensuring usability for all users.
• The app should maintain data integrity and prevent task duplication.

7. Tech Stack

Frontend

• React for Web

Backend

• Python
• FastAPI

Database RDBMS

• MySQL or MariaDB (using Alembic for migrations)

AI Models

• GPT 5.2 for user-friendly task sorting

AI Tools

• Langchain for AI integration

Local Orchestration

8. Assumptions and Constraints

Assumptions

• Users will primarily interact with the app on modern browsers or mobile devices.
• The AI will have zero-shot knowledge capabilities to sort tasks effectively without prior training.
• The app will handle a moderate number of tasks (up to 500) without performance degradation.

Constraints

• The design must remain minimalist while incorporating vivid colors.
• The AI sorting mechanism must operate within the constraints of zero-shot knowledge.
• The app must adhere to GDPR and other relevant data privacy regulations.

9. Glossary

• AI: Artificial Intelligence, used in this app to sort tasks based on their content.
• Zero-shot knowledge: The ability of an AI model to perform tasks without prior specific training on the task.
• Minimalist Design: A design philosophy emphasizing simplicity and functionality.
• Task Input Section: A one-line field where users can add new tasks.
• Checkbox: A UI element used to mark tasks as complete.
